"Emotions – The Power of the Subconscious"

Michał about his meeting:

Emotions are the universal language of the subconscious, and understanding them grants access to the power dormant within us. During the lecture, participants, through practical exercises and learning the mechanisms governing their own bodies and minds, will be able to rediscover their emotions and learn to consciously use them to create a better life for themselves and their loved ones. Mastery over emotions enables the effective pursuit of goals in life and business, as well as the building of lasting relationships.

BIO:

The creator of the SHEN method, Founder and President of the SHEN Foundation, has been exploring the mysteries of the spirit, body, and mind for years, combining his findings in the SHEN method. He shares his knowledge through writing and conducting individual sessions and workshops.

The SHEN method is a path to conscious living through the transformation of subconscious programs. A vast portion of our lives happens automatically, beyond consciousness: we make choices, create situations, manifest traits that cause suffering, confusion, and guilt. However, we can consciously choose differently: we want to be healthy, happy, fulfilled, and achieve our goals.

SHEN, through working with the 10 emotions, allows access to the subconscious, changing beliefs, programs, conditioning, and patterns that create suffering and unwanted outcomes we struggle to change. The result is the creation of the life we desire instead of getting stuck in unconscious traumas. The SHEN method enables a life that is free, strong, and healthy, the life we choose and want.

Jacek Szczęsny

"Shamanic Journey - how to begin and why bother at all?"

Jacek about his meeting:

Shamanism is perhaps as old as humanity itself. Shamanic practices are intertwined with specific cultures and traditions, as diverse and colorful as the forms of life on our wonderful planet. However, there are common elements... anthropologists gathered them, who eagerly dispersed around the world in the 1960s studying indigenous cultures from various regions. The emergence of so-called "core shamanism" is attributed to the American anthropologist Michael Harner, the founder of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies.

One of the fundamental shamanic rituals in all cultures was contacting the spirit world in search of knowledge, healing, and guidance from spiritual beings - this ritual was the journey undertaken by the shaman - a person who often spontaneously and "upon request" entered an altered state of consciousness (also called the shamanic state of consciousness) to obtain desired information for individual persons or entire communities. This skill, which may seem almost mythical, is actually accessible to each of us.

The use of shamanic techniques in therapeutic work was explored by the Swiss psychiatrist/psychoanalyst Carl Gustav Jung, who lived at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Jung was convinced that the symbolism appearing in shamanic journeys is part of the so-called collective unconscious, a part of the human psyche that, according to Jung, contains the basic patterns of human thinking and behavior (we all come from one "matrix").

If you are interested in personal development through exploring the spiritual world and gaining access to the wisdom of spiritual teachers and spiritual healing (or, as some prefer, access to the collective unconscious) but don't know where to start - this workshop is for you. I will show you how to start practicing shamanic journeys - so you can soon experience the value of these experiences yourself.

What you need to participate in the workshop: willingness, an open mind, rattles, blindfolds, a bit of comfort (blanket/pillow), a notebook, and something to write with.

BIO:

I am 48 years old. For over 25 years, I have been walking the path together with my wife Magda, sharing with her common professional and personal passions. Together, we are parents to Justyna (18) and Olaf (22), as well as owners of our dog Polly and our cat Hermione. Our common passions include travel, good food, cinema, theater, various physical activities, personal/spiritual development (5 Rhythms; Tantra; shamanism), and exploration of visible and invisible worlds...

To maintain a healthy relationship, we also have areas that we do not share with our partner. In my case, these are sailing, Jiu-Jitsu, and motorcycle riding.

We live and work in Germany - in the former GDR territories. Professionally, for over 20 years, I have been working with people... I am a medical doctor by education, specializing in internal medicine, cardiology, emergency medicine, and intensive care... After many years of working in a hospital as an interventional cardiologist in the hemodynamic laboratory and in the ICU, I decided to leave the hospital.

For the past 5 years, Magda and I have been running our private medical practice. Additionally, I am a developmental trauma therapist (NARM); I have also completed training in Somatic Experiencing shock trauma therapy. In my work with people, I combine knowledge from various fields and areas... My professional dream is to work completely outside the healthcare system (which absolutely does not mean that I reject Western medicine).

You are warmly invited!

Zbigniew Mlak

"A Man in Therapy"

Zbigniew about his meeting:

Is it true that men seek therapeutic help less often than women? Does the myth still persist that men don't cry, don't know what pain is, and when they need help, they go out with their buddies for a beer to talk? And if they do come for therapy, who are they and what problems do they face in today's world?

This will be a lecture about my experience with men whom I meet in therapy, about what they come with, what they talk about, what is difficult for them, and how they cope. It will be about how therapy is not shameful or a sign of powerlessness and weakness, and finally, it will also be about how sometimes it's worth not waiting any longer and going to therapy to help oneself.

BIO:

Born in 1970. Educated as a theologian and psychologist. I worked in meat factories, served as a chaplain in the Bundeswehr, went on missions in Kosovo and Afghanistan, and sold windows. Currently, I live with my wife in Germany and work as a psychologist, psychotherapist, and supervisor. For several years, I have been conducting developmental workshops for men.

"Playfight - The Art of Connection"

Mikołaj about his meeting:

Imagine embodying your primal nature with all that it entails: instinct, wildness, and deep connection. Imagine engaging in conscious interaction with another human being from that very place.

Playfighting is a rediscovery of the beauty of physical play, just as animals and children do. It's a path to authentic relationship with your own fear, integrating the strength of your body with the gentleness of your heart. It's a primal, deep form of communication with yourself and others, engaging you fully.

It's an opportunity to nourish your body, develop emotional intelligence, and discover the power of connection. All of this within a safe circle space that holds, supports, and accepts you as you are.

Feel the beauty and freedom of being human!

BIO:

I am a physician, specializing in Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine. A fulfilled father. Desiring to heal holistically for many years, I organize camps and workshops and conduct individual sessions where I combine my medical knowledge with years of movement and psychological experience.

My main intention is to help people live in health and fulfill their potential through comprehensive changes in daily behaviors and building connections with themselves, others, nature, and the world. I use tools such as Movement, Playfight, Qi Gong, Possibility Management, Conscious Play, Adventure Therapy, and Experiential Learning for this purpose. For the past 4 years, I have been studying and practicing Playfight passionately at its source, with Matteo Tangi, and for a year now, I have been proudly spreading it in Poland."

Robert Rient

"Ceremony of ITO - Intuitive Dance of Stories"
"Ceremony of Meeting with the Guardian Spirit"

Robert about the ITO Ceremony:

Ceremony with the intention: health beyond any shame. If we can make the smallest movement with our bodies, it means we can dance the Intuitive Dance of Stories (ITO). ITO embodies freedom, joy, ecstasy, and emotional release of tensions stored in the body, offering a chance to embark on a shamanic journey through movement. ITO originates from ancient shamanic trance dances, drawing from tribal ecstatic dance, intuitive dance, and therapeutic bodywork. The ceremony enables a shamanic journey to fulfill one's intention.

Robert about the Ceremony of Meeting with the Guardian Spirit:

This will be storytelling shamanism. 'When I love, I keep alive,' said the spirit. You will listen to a living story, and if you listen well (recognizing that in the spirit world, the whole body is the ear), you will grasp the healing spell, and something will stir deep within you. 'I am not subject to words,' said the spirit, and took you to a place: 'I give power to words.' With the sound of power words and drumming, there will be a chance for a journey, shedding unnecessary layers and reaching a place of healing.

"Courage as a Tool of Transformation"

Łukasz about his meeting:

The workshop 'Courage as a Tool of Transformation' is a unique journey into oneself, where courage becomes the key to inner change and building a strong sense of self-worth. Focusing on the technique of releasing emotions inspired by the works of David R. Hawkins, participants will learn how to release negative emotions and limiting beliefs that block their spiritual and personal development.

In this workshop, we will discover the power of courage as a spiritual tool. Courage is not just the absence of fear but a conscious choice to confront internal challenges, ultimately becoming a way of life. It is the decision to move through fear, embracing it as part of the growth process. Through practical exercises and meditations, participants will learn how to use courage to transform their lives, building high self-esteem and a sense of self-worth in the process.

This workshop is ideal for those who wish to deepen their spiritual path and uncover previously unknown reservoirs of strength and self-assurance within themselves. By practicing the technique of releasing emotions, participants will gain a tool to effectively work through their emotions, while learning how courage can become their ally on the journey towards a fuller and more satisfying life.

BIO:

My professional journey began in the world of business and finance, where as a banker and entrepreneur, I sought the path to fulfillment. However, what seemed to be the road to success gradually revealed its limitations, leading me to a turning point in my life.

In search of deeper meaning and healing, my career path began to evolve towards spiritual development.

My personal struggles with depression, which became a catalyst for change, revealed that our greatest challenges hold our greatest strengths. It was then that I discovered that I am the architect of my life, the healer of my soul. My path, illuminated by the teachings of David Hawkins and the practice of emotional release technique, became a bridge that allowed me to transition from limitations to unlimited possibilities.

I discovered the invaluable connection with my inner self and how it influences our entire lives. In my therapeutic work, where emotional release technique and hypnosis intertwine with the energy of love, empathy, forgiveness, and compassion, I demonstrate how powerful our mind is as a tool. By connecting with our inner selves and understanding ourselves, I help open doors to deeper understanding of others.

Privately, I am a father of two children - 12-year-old Aleksander (who will join me) and one-month-old Wiktoria. Besides my professional life, my heart also beats to the rhythm of sports such as tennis, squash, and kitesurfing, which give me a sense of freedom and joy.

Today, as a therapist, I am committed to supporting others on their individual paths to healing, self-discovery, and inner development. I believe that my life experiences, both difficult and joyful, are a valuable source of strength that allows me to better understand and help those I meet on my journey.

My journey from business to spirituality not only transformed me into a therapist but also taught me that true strength lies within us and that every obstacle we face can become a step towards deeper self-awareness. My mission is to share this knowledge and experience to help others discover their own path to happiness and inner harmony.

"The Dimension of Breath: Discovering Strength and Calmness"

Maciej about his meeting:

The breathwork workshop is an intense experience that focuses on exploring and refining breathing techniques to improve health, vitality, and well-being. During the workshop, we uncover the potential of our breath through various practices such as deep breathing, breath meditation, pranayama (breath control), and relaxation techniques.

Through guided exercises, we become more aware of our breath, learning how to use it to reduce stress, improve concentration, and increase life energy. Workshop instructors emphasize mindfulness techniques, aiding us in achieving deep focus and presence in the present moment.

Breathwork workshops often include theoretical elements that explain the impact of breathing on physical and mental health. We learn about the role of the diaphragm, the influence of breath on the nervous system, and its connection to emotions and mental health.

Breathwork practices are adapted to our needs, and we receive tools to continue the practice in our daily lives. The breathwork workshop can be a profound transformative experience, leading to a deeper understanding and mastery of our own breath and its potential to improve the quality of life.

Piotr Matłok - Lightbringer

"Sweat Lodge Ceremony"

Piotr about the ceremony:

The sweat lodge ceremony is often referred to as a rebirth, as it frequently brings about healing on the levels of body, mind, and emotions. Enveloped by the Earth and the powerful warmth within it (symbolized by the sweat lodge), the following occurs: burning away what no longer serves us, purging what is no longer relevant, making room for the new. It is then that space is born to quickly see what in everyday life takes weeks/months/years.

These ceremonies relate to the cyclical nature of life; thus, we go through a cycle from birth to death, and not only in terms of knowledge, but we come to accept from experience that this cycle is not exclusive to our Ceremony, and then we are faced with a choice of what this unique experience will bring and how long it will stay with us.

Know that we will be accompanied by:

Elements: water, fire, air, earth,

Directions of the World: east, south, west, north,

Sounds of drums and the scent of pure tobacco, but above all, open hearts and deep transformative experience.

BIO:

I am Piotr - Lightbringer. By profession, I am a Civil Engineering engineer. Currently, along with my wife Ania, I run a farm, a space that we have opened for developmental workshops and ceremonies. With passion, I create ethnic instruments - flutes, drums, rattles.

I raise eight children and am an active instructor in the Polish Scouting and Guiding Association (ZHP), as well as a guardian to Aleksjej from Ukraine, who is like a son to me. I hope to bring all my sons with me to the Conscious Man Festival. My passions include music, sailing, leading initiatory and developmental processes. For many years now, I have been attentively traversing the circle of my life. This sensitivity was taught to me by my (deceased in 2020) Master and Friend, Dr. David Thomson, whose teachings, thanks to their immense versatility, are still relevant to me.

In 2019, I was honored with the trust of Chief Ceremonial of the Blackfoot Tribe, Keith Chiefmoon (Onistaya Kopi). He entrusted me with a series of ceremonies so that I could serve people using the pure indigenous traditions of our land. Men's circles are an opportunity for me to delve deeper into my practices and support others in their processes."

Michał Pyziak

"Grounded man in a relationship"

Michał about his meeting:

What are we afraid of in relationships with women? What throws us off balance? Why do we withdraw instead of facing problems? Why do we sulk instead of openly expressing our opinion? How to openly talk about our feelings and needs? How to bring our authenticity into emotional relationships? When is it worth confronting instead of seeking a rotten compromise?

These are the topics we will address during the workshop. We will examine our often unconscious thinking patterns and see how they influence our behavior in relationships. Through practical exercises, we will learn to express ourselves and open up to the perspective of the other side. We will strengthen internal grounding to maintain calmness and clarity of mind in difficult situations. We will seek access to our sensitivity to build relationships based on love.

To create a healthy, attractive, and mutually respectful emotional relationship with a woman, a man needs to cultivate his independence. To do this, it is essential to draw on the energy of other men, the ability to look at relational problems from their perspective, gain distance, and grounding. This is the support we will provide each other during this workshop.

BIO:

Personal development trainer and integral coach.

The initiator of the Men's Circle operating continuously since 2012 in Łódź. He conducts group workshops for men as well as practices of solitude and tranquility in nature. He works individually with men on better understanding themselves, internal grounding, accessing sensitivity, and personal power. Participant of the European Men’s Leadership Summit.

"Backpack for Life"

Tomek about his meeting:

The backpack for life. What to put in it now so that the child will take out only treasures from it in the future.

Sometimes we wonder what skills will help children lead a happy and fulfilling life. I have chosen five (motivation, independence, authenticity, creativity, empathy) that regardless of whether we want it or not, the child will take from their family home in their life backpack. How to act and what to say now so that many years from now our adult child will take out more treasures than heavy stones from it? I will provide very practical answers to this question, sharing with you specific inspirations.

Arek Piechowski

"The Power of Masculine Presence: A Meditative Journey to Emotional Balance"

Arek about his meeting:

The workshop is dedicated to building a healthy emotional balance and strengthening the inner strength of men. In today's fast-paced and demanding world, men often have to deal with many challenges, such as social pressure, professional and relational expectations, or difficulties in expressing emotions. During this workshop, participants will have the opportunity to delve into the practice of meditation and mindfulness, which will help them better cope with emotions and stress in everyday life.

During the workshop, participants will be able to learn various meditation techniques that allow them to consciously observe and accept their emotions, which in turn can lead to greater emotional balance. Through the practice of meditation, participants will gain tools to deal with difficult emotional situations and build mental resilience.

Carl Gustav Jung claimed that emotions are 'the activity of the whole psyche, the holistic pattern of the soul.' Emotions, therefore, are an essential element of our inner world. Exploring and understanding emotions plays a crucial role in self-awareness and personal development. Lack of emotional balance is one of the main reasons why people seek support.

Meditation can also help increase concentration and clarity of mind, enabling more conscious and balanced decision-making. Additionally, meditation fosters the development of empathy and communication skills, contributing to building satisfying personal and professional relationships.

Participation in the workshop will not only help discover the potential of male presence and build healthy emotional balance but will also enable the exploration of new opportunities for personal development and achieve greater harmony in everyday life.

BIO:

I became interested in personal development and meditation several years ago when I started experiencing very intense unpleasant emotions resulting from a failed relationship and a sense of unfulfillment in my career path.

At that time, there was increasing talk about the benefits of meditation, but for me, it was necessary to overcome the belief that something involving only personal work could bring any results.

Due to intensive research on meditation conducted worldwide, I began to delve into popular science literature and research findings, and the evidence presented there on the effectiveness of meditation encouraged me to start my own practice.

Seeing the first effects of regular meditation practice, I began to explore other methods from various ancient traditions and meditation paths, also recognizing how each of them affects the changes occurring in our bodies.

Currently, I am involved in promoting meditation and mindful living. I am the creator of an online meditation course and organize developmental workshops both stationary and off-site.

One of my great passions is music. I believe that sound and movement can be used as a medium for transformation. Through free, intuitive dance, you can release tensions from both the body and soul and also feel your authenticity and freedom. After a 9-year adventure as a DJ in nightclubs, I decided to use my experience and skills to share a different kind of music, creating a safe space for self-expression during Ecstatic Dance events.

I am currently also a student of a year-long breath integration school, which has allowed me to discover how breath can be a great support on the path to self-discovery."

I invite you to join in the contemplation of the cycles of life, and the dance of the masculine and feminine. We will meet in the safest place on Earth - the Sweat Lodge - the Womb of Mother Earth, to sit in a brotherly circle within the embrace of femininity and explore masculinity.

We enter the Womb of Mother Earth to connect with our roots, relationships, and the source of creation, to establish a new balance, to integrate this time of great changes, to invoke, embrace, and love ourselves, focusing our attention in our Hearts.

The Sweat Lodge is a ceremony of purification and rebirth, a return to the Womb. This ritual originates from the traditions of the indigenous peoples of North America. It is a profound and transformative experience that helps one understand oneself and one's boundaries better. Healing can occur here on the physical, emotional, and mental levels, thanks to the loving embrace of the Earth and the reminder of one's essence. We return to the time of beginnings, to the primordial forces of creation, to renew and refresh our relationship with life.

Temazcal is a space of authenticity in the nakedness of being human - spiritual integrity or the lack thereof. From a place of acceptance of truth, we can take the next steps.

BIO:

I am an Artist, Activist, and student of archaic healing traditions. I accompany others in the process of regaining harmony in their relationship with themselves and the world, where truth manifests through beauty. My tools are sound, music, and archaic techniques of transformation (e.g., the Sweat Lodge). My path of seeking truth and the magic of life began in my teenage years. As my horizons expanded, I participated in numerous journeys, Ceremonies, and Initiations in various traditions, including Shipibo, Huni Kuin, Yanawana, and Camino Rojo. I completed the Vision Quest cycle and have been leading Temazcal Ceremonies for 10 years.

I am the initiator and founder of the Garden of Creation Foundation, which grew out of discovering the path of the heart and dreaming of building Synergy. Currently, I run the foundation with my beloved and a group of friends. It is a space for men's and women's circles, ceremonies, initiation rituals, and art dedicated to the great mystery. I am also the initiator of the Metaphoric Tools workshop, where Medicine drums, ceremonial rattles, Love Flutes, and zithers called Chadagan are made.

"From the Life of a Wolf Pack - What Can We Learn from Wolves?"

Łukasz about our meeting:

There are too many wolves! They have stopped fearing humans! We fear for our children." – these are headlines we read in the media every month. The fear is understandable, but what about the rest?

In this lecture, I will talk about my encounters with these animals, which occurred over 8 years of working as a wolf tracker. I will share my experiences from Mongolia, Poland, Italy, and Jordan, where I studied their habits.

You will learn about how wolves live, what they hunt, what a pack is, and whether it is truly dangerous to humans. And also, what can we learn from them?

BIO:

For 8 years, I have been tracking wolves. I have gathered experiences about their habits, hunting techniques, and tracking in Poland, Italy, Mongolia, and Jordan. Over 1,000 people, including families with children, have participated in my expeditions "Tracking Wolves" in the Białowieża Forest and the Żywiec Beskids.

Kuba Bania Izbicki

A Man in His Truth and His Emotions – An Instruction Manual

Kuba about our meeting:

We were not taught what emotions are and how to use them. Let's be honest: especially us Men do not understand, cope well with, or know how to handle emotions (our own and those of others) to support our greater Truth, clarity, and lasting happiness. From a young age, we are taught that experiencing the full range of emotions is unmanly, dangerous, that they can overwhelm us, incapacitate us, rob us of reason, control, and agency. This leads most men to disconnect from deep feeling early on, from the body as an emotional resonator, and from their Heart as a compass of personal Truth. We end up in the position of emotional husks procrastinating our lives or in the armor of a lost cyborg drowning out emotional pain with various addictions and compulsions.

During the workshop, you will see and feel what the path of a Man in His Truth is like and receive a few practical psychotools from his toolbox. If you long for more juiciness in life and clarity in leadership, you need above all to return to the deep Truth of your masculine Heart. To open it again and listen to its song. You can learn to recognize the messages of emotions and use them as signposts of life fulfillment. You can disarm the body of the ego armor to feel more and breathe the fullness of your life potential. You can expand your space of experience to avoid emotional freezing or blowing emotional fuses at every difficult opportunity.

During the workshop, you will also learn the 'Presence in 3 Steps' practice as a meditation in the movement of your life, transforming the quality of experience in every aspect: from personal relationship with yourself, through relationships with others, professional aspects, to the experience of sexual life.

BIO:

A psychologist, coach, and holistic therapist by profession. From a passionate and tireless seeker of human fulfillment.

I work workshop and therapeutically with the method of Holistic Reintegration, which is a coherent, comprehensive system of working with people, combining modern academic knowledge with unconventional methods derived from streams organized around the 8 main areas of our human nature.

I am a typical example of the archetype of the Wounded Healer, who has undergone a long and difficult path of personal transformation. From a place where my own trauma burdens and completely takes away the will to live, to a place where it becomes a worked-through gift and resource for sharing and working with another human being.

After a period of admiration and disappointment with the scientific achievements of the Western world, for over 20 years I have been following the path of embodied spirituality in the non-dual (non-duality) and tantric stream. In my work, I combine a broad approach from spirit to body, from mind to emotions, from the system of origin to personal patterns of burdens and possibilities, from bioenergetics to inner purpose ensuring life fulfillment.

I find artistic self-realization in photographing human movements in the awakening process.

Rafał Wilk

"Stress: Enemy or Friend?"

Rafał about our meeting:

Life in the 21st century moves faster than ever before. Just one day of experiences provides the human nervous system with stimulation equivalent to the entire lifetime of our ancestors in the Paleolithic era. The constant pursuit of further development, finances, and trying to keep up with the universal rush squeezes out our last drops of energy under the motto "more, faster, stronger!"

Improper response to stress accounts for up to 90% of disease entities, adversely affecting breathing, heart function, hormone production, digestion, energy availability, ability to regenerate, as well as well-being and motivation. In the background of increasingly lower quality of life, mental clutter, symptoms of ADHD/ADD, anxiety, and insomnia accompany us.

In addition to health problems, stress is also the strongest limiter of the potential of human consciousness, creating interpersonal relationships, fulfilling dreams, and striving for self-development. For this reason, the lecture during Conscious Man will aim to explain how to harness the human nervous system, presenting both the essence of the problem and a range of tools.

BIO:

A full-time trainer, clinical dietitian, consultant, and personal trainer certified by IFAA.

Author of over 100 stationary trainings on the topics of ketosis and biohacking throughout Poland, including at the University of Wrocław Medical University and trainings on special requests among organized groups and companies. Co-creator of free projects promoting health and expert knowledge on ketosis and ketogenic diets: KETOpost, KETOreduction, KETOmass, KETOtherapies, etc. A popularizer of knowledge about the circadian rhythm, the importance of the environment, and social interaction for the human body.

Personally, he's a head full of questions and doubts, constantly hungry for sought-after answers. He continuously increases his knowledge through advanced courses, books and scientific publications, and comprehensive collaboration with difficult, often "unwanted cases." A lover of naturopathy and a holistic approach to medicine and the human being. Skeptic of the bias present in the fitness environment, such as ready-made schemes and templates, or imposed frameworks according to popular dietary systems. In his work, he focuses on the basics of physiology and biochemistry, supported by appropriate analysis and methodology tailored to the individual case. An enthusiast of personalization, from diet to training, to supplementation, often ending with lifestyle or mindset. Fresh blood and a strong alternative!

Mana Akitanga

Haka, Soamako, Polynesian philosophies

Mana about our meeting:

"Haka and Soamako:
Haka, for his family, is nothing aggressive or performed to war like it is commonly said outside of Aotearoa, or outside from the Pacific islands. There is a difference between being a warrior and being a defender of your own land. In Mana’s family, they love to focus on the latter when performing the Haka. His grandmother says, "They wanted our land, we defended our families and the land of our children."

While performing Haka, we want to be the guardian of the heritage passed to us by our ancestors. Through clapping against our body, we want to awake the "mana" (power) resting in our belly. With wide moves, dilated eyes, and prominent tongues out, we want to say we are ready to stand strong against adversity. With our chants and voices, we want to call for our ancestors’ guidance and support.

Thanks to Soamako, our "mana" will find some balance as we will work on it in a softer way. With Soamako, the big and imposing Polynesians gained their reputation of "Gentle giants", enhancing the unity by performing harmonious and peaceful moves, with love and pride shining from the eyes.

Polynesian Philosophies:
Manaaki, Autahi, Aro, Aroha, Kuleana… words in Polynesian languages which flow in the life of Pacific islanders. How do Polynesian men see life? How do they deal with traumas? How do they receive life’s challenges? Let’s get to know the way of the Polynesian triangle people."

BIO:

Mana, comes from Polynesia, born on the sacred island of Ra’iatea, the legendary Hava’i Nui, and his family traces their lineage to the last clan/tribe standing against invaders in Ra’iatea and Aotearoa (New Zealand).

As the traditions oblige, he learnt about his ancestors, cultures, and traditions with his grandparents.

Sitting Meditation - Inner Adjustments of the Meditative Posture.

About our meeting:

Sitting meditation can be practiced in various ways and in different traditions. Its foundation always lies in the posture of the body, the way of breathing, and directing attention, which simply means being - letting go of what distracts us, takes us away from true practice. The longer you sit, the more the position becomes natural, relaxed, the spine becomes strong and grounded, and the breath deepens and slows down.

Drawing from practices of zazen and qi gong, as well as my years of work with the body as a Ground Movement teacher, I will guide you through the inner adjustments of the sitting posture, so that you can deepen your practice and thereby be more present and aware in everyday life.

For the workshop, bring a blanket, mat, or sleeping bag, something that will simulate a cushion for sitting.

BIO:

I am Baba, online known as Baba on the Path.

For as long as I can remember, I have always been a seeker and explorer. When I stepped out of 'systemic' thinking, I began to discover various practices such as movement, yoga, psychedelics, and plant medicine, eventually settling into qi gong and zazen meditation, abandoning all other substances and methods.

Since 2016, I have been leading the Ground Movement group with friends, where I have conducted several thousand hours of individual sessions, group classes, and workshops. In recent years, I have been on a so-called 'hero's journey,' discovering myself in various ways and shedding what is not true. I lived in seclusion in a trailer, traveled in the Andes and the Amazon, and spent six months as a shepherd in the Alps. I returned to my beloved partner, who gave birth to our wonderful daughter Marysia, and we moved to the Ground Movement Settlement in the Czech Republic, where we are currently creating a place to live for our family and a center for camps, workshops, and volunteering.

Life is the Path for me, eternal here and now, where I feel best, and I strive to delve into, practice, and pass on this Path.

Dr Maciej Madziński

Building Personal Finances with the Goal of Long-Term Financial Independence.

Maciej about our meeting:

Financial freedom is perceived differently by everyone, so we will start by discussing the idea of financial freedom, the differences in its perception, and the personal financial goals of the participants. Each person will reflect on what financial success means to them. Then we will move on to three key steps in building financial independence, from financial diagnosis through possible 'quick wins' to long-term planning in the style of FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early). We will conclude the session with an introduction to investing in financial markets, from safe deposits to risky options such as Forex, followed by a Q&A session.

During the lecture, we will cover:

1. What is financial freedom/independence and how does it differ for each of us?

2. Basics of building financial independence - three steps: a. Diagnosis of the AS-IS state (what I have, what resources I have); b. Basics of financial independence and quick wins (what to do easily); c. Long-term plan for building independence (modified FIRE concept).

3. Basics of investing in financial markets - from relatively low risk to 'roller coaster' rides: a. Deposits and bonds; b. Stocks and other related assets (e.g., stock ETFs); c. High-risk assets (Forex, etc.) - is it still investing?

4. Financial Q&A.

"The Circle of the Heart's Song"

Filip about our meeting:

The Songs of the Heart Circle

Songs of the heart and power music have served as medicine for the soul and body since ancient times. Mantras, prayers, and songs of this kind have been and are sung with the intention of cleansing the body and soul from heaviness, illness, as well as transforming obstructive thoughts and emotions – fear, guilt, sadness, powerlessness, anger, despair – into positive emotions: joy, trust, peace, love, gratitude, thus restoring balance at every level of human existence.

Songs of the heart carry the known truths and wisdom of our ancestors, which have been forgotten or pushed to the margins by contemporary civilization trends. Through intentions, vibrations of music, and information conveyed through words, the knowledge recorded in our genes, the wisdom of our ancestors about the order of the Universe, the human role in it, and responsibility returns to us.

Power songs carry extraordinary treasures of love, joy, hope, light, and space, supporting both spirit and body. They serve as a connection to the divine and earthly elements. They remind us that our lives and hearts exist between Earth and Heaven, containing complementary and supporting energies. Power songs activate vibrations in the body that invite us to dance, to joyfully express the energy of existence emanating from love.

Together, we will ignite the energy of these songs to flow together on the waves of their vibrations.

I will bring printed lyrics prepared for participants.

We will sit around the fire to sing songs of the heart from different directions and traditions. With the power of our voices and hearts, we will connect and flow on the waves of song medicine vibrations.

"Peace in the Masculine Heart. Reconciliation in the Masculine Spirit."

Michał about our meeting:

I invite you to the human process of meeting yourself as a man in your own eyes and in the eyes of other men. As men, we carry images of masculinity - those we have remembered from observing other men, especially those important to us. We carry images of masculinity that are fed to us by contemporary culture and images left to us by our ancestors. These are various images. They carry an idea of ​​good or bad masculinity and a deep personal belief about which world of men we belong to and in which we live. These images strengthen or weaken us, they are a story about who we are deep down. I believe that somewhere in the depths of our hearts, we long to meet with good, noble, worthy, healthy masculinity that creates peace, protection, provides safety, fun, and strength. And we would like to belong to such masculinity. In the soul of a man are all those qualities waiting to meet you and share with others. I believe in a man who is good, worthy, innocent. In a conscious man. And I trust that he lives in you. And he waits. Waits for you. For full recognition. Come make Peace with Yourself as a Man and let's do it together in the Spirit of Men. We will create a strong field and a new image of masculinity in our eyes and hearts. For this, I invite you to the breath-constellational process of Men's Reconciliation and Men's Heart.

"Dance Ceremony"

About our meeting:

Dear Man,

I invite you to a space where we will explore meditation in movement and trance. My mission is to support you in finding your spontaneous expression, wildness, anger, sensitivity, femininity. And of course, where there's dance, there will be music, which I will personally take care of.

A journey. That's the shortest way to describe Live Sets in my interpretation. It's a journey inward, but also cosmic, astral, around the Earth. Like with any journey, the traveler - that's you - makes decisions:

am I ready to explore unknown landscapes?
do I trust the signs encountered along the way?

We'll start our expeditions slowly, passionately listening to the silence from which subtle sounds of nature, flutes, rattles will emerge...
Minute by minute, the music will gain momentum, the vibrations of drums will invite you to discover yourself in a wild, expressive, ruthless aspect - don't be ashamed! After all, we belong to the animal kingdom.

During many waves of intensity, we will visit the jungles of South America, the savannas of Africa, the deserts of the Middle East, and the suburbs of the United States. Our journey will transcend earthly matters, but let the subsequent phases remain a mystery to be discovered.

Remember, your own body is the most valuable guide in this adventure.
It will always lead you to corners worth visiting, just surrender to it!

Music in his life is like a lighthouse for a ship's captain - in the ocean of emotions, thoughts, and experiences, it provides direction.

Ramzi is greatly fascinated by the energetic Djembe drums from West Africa, as well as the hot rhythms of Rumba, Cumbia, or Salsa from South America.
The music of once-oppressed nations, which today brings people a sense of freedom.

His music is like the southern fire of drums, harmonized with emotional soul, with a touch of mysterious orient, and the depth of shamanic rituals, all wrapped in an electronic aura.

In short, it's a journey where dance is the vehicle.

In addition to his passion for music as an art form, Ramzi's mission is to share the healing power that flows from sounds and states of consciousness he induces.
During live performances and workshops, his intention is to invite into a space of uninhibited expression, full presence, and divine flow.

In his daily life, Ramzi composes and records music, leads drum circles and music therapy sessions, performs live sets, and plays instruments such as Djembe, Darbuka, Conga, Guitar, Native American Flute, Looper, Groovebox.

Anger in the Service of Life

Marcin about his meeting:

Anger has a bad reputation, especially in spiritual development circles. It is often equated with "evil" ("anger" - "evil" in Polish). This is not surprising, as the overwhelming majority of our experiences with this energy are of irresponsible, hurtful anger. However, without the energy of anger, it is almost impossible to say "no," "stop," "enough," as well as "yes!" and "I want this!" (what we REALLY want, not what culture—also the development culture—socializes us to want, which is also about truly being ourselves). Without anger, it is almost impossible to create TRULY safe spaces for healing, love, and authenticity (in work, relationships, family, community, etc.), because each of these spaces requires boundaries and the possibility of discomfort when necessary.

Adult anger is Life manifesting through our bodies. Anger is the archetype of the Warrior. There are things in this world that need change and destruction to be replaced by something more beautiful. There are battles worth fighting.

This workshop is a few steps (out of many) in learning the flow and navigation of the energy of anger in the service of Life.

BIO:

Marcin Szot – Long-term partner, since 2021 father of Mikołaj. Co-creator and facilitator of original workshops "Men's Forest Expeditions," creator of men's workshops "Heart Warrior" and workshops on expressing anger, working with emotions, and finding purpose. Since 2015, he has organized groups for both women and men to work with emotions and practice conscious communication based on feelings and needs.

Since 2017, he has been a pioneer and active member of the Polish and international Possibility Management community (https://possibilitymanagement.org/). He has collaborated with the "Alter Ego" Psychotherapy Practice, "MONAR" therapy and addiction centers, the Małopolska Center for Prevention, and private companies. For many years, he has participated in, created, and co-created men's groups and spaces where men and boys can discover new aspects of themselves and take greater responsibility for their lives and what they create.

In 2023, together with his family (fiancée and son), he lived for 6 months in villages with indigenous people on one of the most isolated archipelagos in the world, in the Kingdom of Tonga, where he learned local ways of living close to Nature and explored the local male culture. Previously a press reporter, he has been writing and blogging for many years. Since the birth of his son in 2021, his main focus has been on exploring village, community, culture, adulthood, and Initiation in times of Change.

The presenter will address your fears and objections while dispelling the overly idyllic image of rural life portrayed in the media.

Andrzej Hrycaj

"Inner Fire - Center of Power"

Andrzej about his meeting:

My center is like a personal reactor, a center of gravity and navigation. Being connected with myself means finding, healing, and integrating fragments of my own self, as well as rebuilding the connection with the greater whole, the fabric of life to which I belong. It also means becoming the frontliner of my lineage, the creator of my personal hero's path, moving along the mandala of life, with my personal totem at its core.

Embracing masculinity must be through embodied experience. Each of us needs to ask ourselves - Who is the man that I am? And what do I need to learn from this? To say to oneself - Let's see. To grow into oneself where needed. Most of us have not undergone rites of passage, have not ventured into unknown lands in a literal sense. Men's work is an opportunity to stand on unvisited territories, to connect with our personal journey, to revise beliefs, to be shaken, and to return to ourselves and activate the power of an authentic male heart.

When I am in my center, I am connected to my inner fire. I act from a place of connection, I can relate sincerely to what is within me and consciously engage in interactions outside.

We will explore the multidimensionality of the male SELF, experiencing, perception, and responsiveness. Who I am, who I am not. What is in us in the light, and what is in the shadow. We will immerse ourselves in presence, feeling, deepening, and expanding our qualities. We will search for overlooked areas, check how to establish contact with them. We will see how we feel about it. We will look at how our relationship with ourselves intertwines with our relationships with others and the world. We will allow questions to arise within us and give space for answers. All using the natural apparatus we are equipped with by nature - movement, deep feeling, and breath. And whatever happens, we will be together.

BIO:

Andrzej Hrycaj has been in a relationship with his beloved woman for a quarter of a century and is a happy father of two adult children, traveler, and entrepreneur. He is passionate about mountains, off-the-beaten-path hikes, and contact with nature. He is an enthusiast of conscious practices with the body, breath, emotions, and mental attitude. He is an instructor of the Wim Hof Method, a practitioner of Tibetan Tummo, a lifetrepreneur, and a biohacker. He promotes the principles of deep ecology and the understanding that everything is connected. His personal credo is "Be the change you wish to see in the world."

He treats life as a continuous journey where every moment and every step is an opportunity to act a little more consciously and thus better. He holds cyclical circles in Wrocław. In men's work, he uses practices of primal cultures, the symbolism of myths, including the "hero's journey," rituals, and Jungian archetypes. His mission is to assist and help others in becoming a happy, healthy, powerful, and authentic version of themselves.

Paweł Kruciński

"Conscious Ceremony - Świadoma Ceremonia"

Paweł about his meeting:

What is consciousness? What is ceremony? What is Conscious Ceremony?

Each of us lives in our own dimension, a world of our own patterns and beliefs about who and what we are, and what the surrounding world, space, is. Although we are all human, we often perceive, feel, and interpret this world in vastly different ways.

The goal of the lecture is not to provide universal answers to these questions but rather to respond to them very subjectively, based on my own views and experiences.

I aim to inspire listeners to honestly examine what Conscious Ceremony has been or is for them, and perhaps to open up to new perspectives on what it could be in the future.

BIO:

I am 50 years old. I have been practicing Tibetan Dzogchen Buddhism for 11 years following the teachings of Chogyal Namkhai Norbu. For several years, I have been conducting Kambo ceremonies, and for a few years, MA-URI ceremonies. I have practiced Tai Chi & Kung Fu for several years, studied and learned from entheogens for over a decade, and I am a multi-instrumentalist.

"Build a Home. Build Yourself."

Dawid about his meeting:

I come from the Beskid Mountains, where the network of neighborhood is dense, offering a chance to experience the local economy among friendly hosts. We collaborate in childcare, exchange food and skills through barter. This collective effort allows us to experience the primal nature of humanity and lay the foundation for future generations. I aim to restore continuity in regional traditions, arriving with experience in independent home construction. I'll be here right after stacking wood on the ground, heading back to the mountains to start another build, this time using wood and clay.

Tomek Eichelberger

"A good posture is inner peace.""

Tomek about his meeting:

Feel invited to explore the posture of our bodies in motion and in stillness. I will share with you the so-called alignments practiced in Qi Gong for millennia, forming the foundation of Eastern martial arts. Body alignments are a powerful source of transformation—they guide us onto the right paths and allow us to work with the tensions we carry within us daily. I will help you discover them by guiding you through various exercises (forms) that illuminate and enable relaxation in the darkest places of our bodies and souls. Even a little change can make a big difference.

This process isn't the easiest, but it is effective—a true adventure for those who wish to take care of themselves. Being in harmony with gravity is like a balm—it brings relief and inner peace.

Tymoteusz Niemiec

"Empowering Responsibility"

Tymoteusz about his meeting:

What is responsibility? Is it a burden and punishment, or freedom, choice, and opportunity?

Am I a victim of what happens, or do I approach life responsibly by observing that everything that happens or doesn't happen is a result of my actions or inactions?

How and why should I step out of the victim role, take matters into my own hands, and take a deeper breath?

Based on Possibility Management tools and my personal experiences, I invite you to take a different look at challenging life situations that you may be experiencing now or have experienced before, and to change your perspective. This change brings more space and lightness into life.

Borys Szyc

"Before what are we running away from?"

Borys about his meeting:

During the meeting, I will share with you my insights and reflections on my alcohol addiction from the perspective of 8 years of sobriety. I'll discuss how it all began, the main reasons behind my addiction, what I wanted to drown, numb, and fill with alcohol, and how it impacted my life.

Only now, after 8 years of abstaining from alcohol, do I see more clearly the cause-and-effect relationships in my private life, family life, and childhood experiences that led me to this addiction. I'll also talk about what personally helped me to say stop, begin changing my life, and how I managed it all.

I hope that based on my story, we can have a discussion together, share our own stories, and discuss what to pay attention to in order to avoid falling into alcohol's traps. We can also explore what actions to take if addiction affects us and discuss strategies to cope with it.
